EXPERIENCE THE INCREDIBLE TRANSFORMATION OF MODERN MEXICAN CUISINE.

HISTORIA

THE STORY

Local entrepreneur Eduardo Rallo joined forces with Mexican architect/restauranteur Juan Garduño to open a restaurant that combines the best of Mexico City with the incredible local produce and talent of the Bay Area.

Perhaps the only thing that excites us more than contemporary Mexican cuisine is the artisanal production of Mezcal, and the La Urbana experience celebrates both in the menu and in the design. We searched through small Mexican towns for everyday pieces of furniture that would recall the country’s rural ‘tienditas,' and then invited contemporary Mexican artists to work on the furniture and the space itself.

AT EVERY TRULY GREAT HOUSE PARTY, SOMETHING CRAZY HAPPENS IN THE GARAGE.

MERCADOURBANO

The walls: covered in a black-and-white skeletony motif. The sangria: guarded by more skeletons. And like any good garage, this one's got plenty of beers on ice. Help yourself to a bottle of Mexicali pilsner. Just put your five bucks in the dangling bucket. The skeletons are watching.

Or take over a card table and cover it with mezcal-champagne punch instead—it'll fuel a fierce domino tournament as you watch the sky darken through the open garage doors.

No. Don't watch that. Focus on the dominoes.

PRIVATE DINING

El GARAJE can be rented out with customizable menus for large parties and is available for dinners with prix fixe menus, Monday through Sunday, with a minimum of 72 hours in advance booking.

Accommodations can be made to ensure a one-of-a-kind event with a unique menu and an unparalleled selection of mezcal.
